Catch up on the third part of my Alaska adventure. Hear about Prince William Sound, my obsession with glaciers, and the final part of my two weeks up north. Alaska is a truly unbelievable place, and though I think my pictures are good, they don't do it justice.

Following our Denali trip, we made our way south through the Kenai Peninsula to check out a few small towns along the coast. Hope and Homer proved to be just a picturesque and scenic as everywhere else in Alaska, something I'm starting to get sick of saying. A little camping and some good food provided for a great weekend yet again.

So remember when I said the Grand Tetons were the most beautiful place on Earth I'd ever seen? Well, I lied. Alaska might possibly be the most picturesque place in North America. Denali National Park, one of the oldest Nat'l Parks in the U.S. and home to the tallest peak in North America, Mount McKinley, is rumored to be heaven on Earth, an oasis of mountainous beauty nestled way up in the northern reaches of the continent. It sounded like a place I wanted to visit, especially considering my main goal during my year of traveling: see as many beautiful places on this planet as possible. Without much convincing, it became the easiest $600 plane ticket I've ever purchased.
